An Entity of Type: album, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org

Break Like the Wind is a 1992 album by the fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap. The songs include a range of genres, from the glam metal anthem "Bitch School" down to the skiffle satire of "All the Way Home". The title, and the album's title track, is a double entendre that combines and confuses the idiom "make like the wind" (also possibly a reference to the Christopher Cross song "Ride Like the Wind", famously covered by British heavy metal band Saxon) with "break wind", a euphemism for flatulence. The album reached #44 in Canada.

  • Break Like the Wind is a 1992 album by the fictional heavy metal band Spinal Tap. The songs include a range of genres, from the glam metal anthem "Bitch School" down to the skiffle satire of "All the Way Home". The title, and the album's title track, is a double entendre that combines and confuses the idiom "make like the wind" (also possibly a reference to the Christopher Cross song "Ride Like the Wind", famously covered by British heavy metal band Saxon) with "break wind", a euphemism for flatulence. Originally, the CD was packaged in an 18-inch "extra-long box", as a satire against the controversial packaging policy of longboxes which was increasingly criticized as unnecessary and wasteful. The album reached #44 in Canada. (en)
  • Break Like The Wind est le seul vrai album du faux groupe de heavy metal parodique britannique Spinal Tap. Il a été enregistré et publié en 1992, sous la demande insistante des fans qui réclamaient depuis longtemps une reformation réelle du combo. Ce disque, qui, à cause de la mode grunge, n'a pas eu autant de succès qu'espéré, n'a été promu que par un seul concert, le premier live donné réellement par Spinal Tap, au Royal Albert Hall de Londres en 1992. L'album est disponible, avec la BO du film, dans le coffret DVD+bonus sorti en 2003. (fr)
